ristorazione — Acqui Terme · Piemonte
Between the hills of Monferrato and the springs of Acqui Terme, a place that carries a Felliniesque echo in its name and, in its dining room, the substance of a kitchen that never disappoints: wood-fired oven, steakhouse, and a door open to everyone.
Acqui Terme guards its waters and its tables with the same discretion. On via Crenna, La Dolce Vita opens its doors to families with children, large groups, and guests with dogs on a leash: a spacious place that has made unreserved hospitality its first priority, even before the menu arrives.
The pizza menu is extensive, built to satisfy different palates: alongside the classic offerings are gluten-free and vegan variants, crafted with the same care. The service — courteous, quick, attentive — is consistently mentioned in reviews as one of the traits that make guests want to return.
The wood-fired oven is the visible heart of the kitchen: the pizza is prepared and baked in front of guests, with a soft dough that reviews describe in precise detail. Alongside the pizza, the steakhouse offering broadens the register toward the grill, giving the place a dual character that sets it apart in this spa town.
From crema catalana to the rows of vines of Monferrato in the background: the page tells the full story that the scene has just begun to suggest.
